Case Study (Corporate Headquarters)
Carrier Services
Requirements: Large Fortune 500 firm seeking to consolidate seven NYC offices into three offices. These three new facilities will be new construction. The six satellite offices are currently connected to the firm's corporate headquarters each via four (4) point to point T1s. The original Hub-site has 16 voice PRI's out to the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). The new Corporate Headquarters & two satellite offices requires a state of the art carrier infrastructure that is cost effective to implement and & manage and provide the appropriate fault tolerance . There are several affiliated companies operating within the headquarters building & sharing the network infrastructure. These affiliates require a separate monthly cost breakout. Solution: The Management of Converge successfully recommended, designed, and managed the implementation of a fully converged Carrier Services Sonet Ring that is cost effective, redundant, diverse, and manageable. This Sonet Ring infrastructure will support voice, data, video conferencing and building security in the metro area network (MAN). Small branch office will connect to HQ via four (4) point to point T1s, and medium branch also via four (4) point to point T1 and a DS3. The HQ and serving Central Offices will be on the ring. All carriers (Sprint, Focal, AT&T, MCI, etc.) will ride the Verizon ring from HQ to their Point of Presence (POP). |
